I remember when I joined RF.com like 7 years ago. I never logged back on because the demographic was like 90% middle-aged women who treated Roger like he was their son. Nothing against them, but I didn't fit in. lol.

Exactly.

Roger (and seriously, that name don't help) doesn't seem to provoke any sexual lust from females, instead he gets a lot of 'motherly' sort of affection from women in their 50's who wish their sons were as successful, well-behaved, gentlemanly and well turned-out as him.

The man your mother wanted you to be is never the man that women lust after - Federer is proof of that.

Well, that is just one particular fanzone I'm talking about. Federer's has only like 300,000 members on his website and 11 million or something on his facebook.

Anyways, check out some of those horrific lindt ads Federer did on youtube. They make me cringe, but the comment section is filled with people lusting over him.

I think straight women probably like Federer because they think he's a nice guy they can have him though he's not as sexually attractive appealing as Nadal. Federer isn't that masculine either this is a guy who cries when he loses grand slam finals. I know for a fact in the gay male community most gay guys prefer Nadal and Djokovic over Federer. Federer is kind of soft and effeminate.

Several of my gfs and I sulked for days (some for weeks) when he got married.

It's going to be even uglier when Rafa gets taken off the market.

You boys really do think you're the only ones who appreciate the – um – aesthetic side of tennis, don't you?

:shock:

I wish the female version of the "guys only" thread for posting hot photos and gushing wasn't always buried somewhere. I'm not ashamed to admit a factor in my tennis fandom is appreciating the men on my screen for more than their tennis. I'm not nearly as attracted to Roger as I am Djokovic and Nadal...you know that date, ****, or marry game? Roger would get the marry for me. He seems like the kind of guy you settle down with not the kind of guy you have a little mindless *fun* with.

Sorry, but you have no idea what you are talking about. If you think the most successful professional tennis player of all time, the most elegant guy on the men's tour, with the best hair does not elicit sexual lust from many females you need a reality check.

You can't generalize - people can look at Fed and see different things.

For me I find him much more masculine-looking than Nadal: stronger features, broader shoulders, more body hair, deeper voice. Nadal is kinda "pretty" in a feminine way for me which prevents him from being sexy. Obviously there are people who see this in a totally different way.

As for Fed's "effeminate side" sure it's there; but there's also the an aggressive bad-ass side which you sometimes see on court.

Fed's capable of projecting wildly different emotional states, which makes him complicated and therefore IMO sexy.

As I've said before, I think Federer could pass for early 40s. He's really aged his skin with all the tanning. Sometime in either 2007 or 2008, he became obsessed with tanning, and I'm not sure why. Maybe he was getting sunburns regularly or something, or was sick of applying sun screen.

As for whether or not women find him attractive...do women find any guys attractive? They lie so much about everything there's no way of knowing whether they're saying what they think they want, or what they actually want. They always have to pretend to be noble and deep and non-superficial.

The fact that there seems to be such a wide range of what women claim to find "attractive" suggests that they're talking out their ass when they discuss men's looks.

His skin has definitely taken a turn for the worse.

As for the rest, take it easy and don't generalize so much. There are plenty of great women out there and you'll find one if you look with softer eyes.

Eh, Roger cleans up nice and looks sharp and handsome in a suit, but he's just ok. The thing with Roger and Rafa is neither of them seem to have one ounce of humor in them. Sorry, but they come across as pretty dull people personality wise. So give me Nole, Murray, Tsonga, Tipsy any day.

Apparently there aren't much posters in this thread who've actually seen Fed from close view over here.
He's charming, friendly and much more good looking than he does on pictures.
Not the proverbial poster-boy, but most definitely an attractive guy.

Fed looking like he's 40??? Hahahahahahah.
You *wish* you'd look that good once you get close to that age!

all tennis players age badly with all the hours they spend in the sun. Of course, having more melanin in the skin assuages some of that but even Rafa, when he smiles, you see all manner of lines in the face. When djoker smiles you can see all kinds of crows feet lines around his eyes.

Misogynist Tipsy? Clearly you're not a woman if you would put him on your list.

Errr.... You complained about Fedal being dull, then you mentioned Murray as someone who might not be dull? Does not compute.

Have you had some nasty women in your life? Please don't lump us all in with whatever ladies have done a number on you. If other women are like me, we don't actually have a set-in-stone type when it comes to men. There are men who most would consider ugly that I find attractive, men who most consider gorgeous that don't do anything for me, and everything in between. As I've said in other posts here, I'm 35 so I've hit that age where it doesn't take much to catch my eye

That guy has been screwed over by some woman somewhere along the line. He's angry at all of us because of it, and thinks we are all a bunch of indecisive hussies. :lol:

Uhh I think people don't know what 40 looks like because Federer these days definitely looks older than a normal 30 year old to me. 40 isn't supposed to be fully grey with wrinkles everywhere like John McEnroe and Mugs Wilander who both took a lot of drugs and lived unhealthy. They looked 60 when they were in their 40's.

Last I checked this was a thread about Fed's female following, not the gay following? Like everything else it's personal preference, I'm sure there are women who find him attractive, and women who don't just as there are for Nadal, Djokovic, Murray or any other player.

In other news it's nice to see that NSK is back from his brief hiatus.
